De Mil was established by Coenraad De Mol in 1997 and has moved into male-inspired, gender-neutral clothing in 2007. Although a master patternmaker and a true constructionist, De Mil takes a new-world approach to clothing. Coenraad doesnâ€™t regard gender neutrality as just a theme, â€śitâ€™s what I do,â€ť he says. He caters to those who donâ€™t have a place was well as those who choose not to be boxed-in by societal norms or conventions.
